OK. Good luck in getting the job! > Hope the renewal of > the contract with so_ny goes well. Actually, it has been renewed. The new end-date is May 2, 2005. BTW, I wanted to ask you: is your heritage Sephardic Jew? One side of my family came from Spain. My grandfather's given name was Isadore Bigas before it became Isadore Bloom and then later Robert (hence my name :-). Do you know anyone with a surname of Bigas? Just curious. My grandfather cut off all contacts with his family so that part is pretty much a mystery. > Thank you and take care, > Paola
